One and three quarter inches or so in length, looks to be silver, possible 925 mark on the back left side. TINY though, up for debate. Very thin, seems almost like a ring that has been flattened out. Bezjo found it today. I took the pictures to toss them up for discussion. He took it home so I cannot load anymore images for the time being.

When you can take more images, it would be better to not use such a light background. Color balance is a problem. If you use something dark, the true color - silver - will show up much better. Also try to blow-up the silver mark if you can.

My guess is that it is a decorative band. Wrapped around something to make it look more impressive. Even like a cigar.

decorative emblem, tabs go thru grommets and then are folded over to hold in place. maybe found on a hat or some similar article

Are you sure it is silver? It looks like a carnival prize ring. The one-size-fits-all, bend to fit type. I remember getting those at the elementary school "Spring Fling" fun nights when I was a kid in the early 60's.

If it is indeed silver, that's a different story...

Agree with Matt......wrap it around your finger. If it bends easily around your finger...it's aluminum

Cigar band gets my vote.

Cigar band gets my vote.

thats a good suggestion I would not have considered, maybe someone needs to research this option

I am leaning towards a carnival prize. Don't see much like this anymore but my days of hanging around the gumball machines are long gone so I can't guess on whether it modern or vintage.

 

[Kieth-Tx]

No only reason that I am leaning towards ring instead of cigar bands is I have looked through a bunch of cigar band web sites and I din't see any bands with both ends typical...small and rounded.

Im leaning towards gumball ring.

I have a similar ring in aluminum, except mine has a batter on it and says New York yankees on the sides..........NGE

The answer is on the pigeon look at its ankles its a pigeon bracelet the slide lock is missing on one end

No certainty.

.925 stands for sterling silver, or 925 fine silver, a purity associated with England and early New England.

Bird looks similar to Colonial Coin eagle representations. Flanges suggest it could have been worn as an emblem in a hat or case.

Flattened out kid's ring.

I think it's an adjustable ring for either pigeon or person. Breezie

While not a match, here is a gumball prize childs ring. You can see the same type of adjustable shank.
